I remember some of my friends who went to Vietnam, especially near the end of our involvement there, telling me how they pushed helicopters off ships to make room for more towards the end. Trucks that were on the way there were uncermoniously dumped also.
When I was small, I remember watching Jaques Cousteau (sp?) doing a dive in the south pacific. He found a bunch of 6X6 trucks that had been dumped overboard rather than take up return cargo space in the holds. The cold water at extreme depth had preserved them like they had been dumped yesterday. The tires still had air in them.
